Uptight Audience Reviews

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
